Forums - Nintendo - WTF, Wii Zapper gets PEGI-18 rating in UK?!!?

That thing looks pretty cool, that would be funny if it recieved a E in the US.



Around the Network

Just so we're clear on this (on how utterly idiotic the internet can be):

Reality has a Nintendo bias.

I'm going to lock this thread. The article that contained the quoted information is wrong, and the original article has been updated to say "mistake". The official word is now this:

"UPDATE/CORRECTION: SPOnG has contacted Nintendo and Capcom today to clarify this news. There is no official UK release date on the Wii Zapper as yet, though we are informed it will be sometime this year. Nintendo plans to bundle the Wii Zapper with Links Crossbow Training, which will carry a PEGI 12+ rating. PEGI does not apply ratings to hardware. "

...

So in short - its wrong. The zapper gets *no* rating (being hardware), and Links Crossbow Training - gets the same rating as Zelda got (I believe).
